God of Pets

Chapter 871: The Dragon Enters the Sea

Chen Guan thought it over and decided to first find a scapegoat for the experiment.He cultivated his Secret Law, modifying it to read, "Any creature that has been patted on the head by his palm will have its presence reduced to zero in the eyes of other creatures, being completely ignored."

After modifying his Secret Law, Chen Guan left the ring space, exited Ji Family city, and went to the Tear Luo Desert, where he gave a pat on a sand scorpion’s head.

Chen Guan himself felt that the sand scorpion had no change, so he summoned his Secret Spirit Pets to see if they could detect the sand scorpion.

Warring States, Ghost Eye, and Rouge, among other Secret Spirits, could not see the existence of the sand scorpion; they simply couldn’t find it.

Both Warring States’ keen sense of smell and Ghost Eye’s pupil technique were of no use; they could not detect the sand scorpion.

Chen Guan was overjoyed: "In that case, can’t I turn all my pets into low-presence beings, effectively giving them an invisibility buff? In the future, ambushing high-level Secret Spirits would be a piece of cake, wouldn’t it?"

But when Chen Guan summoned Ming Fei, Ming Fei saw the very low-presence sand scorpion at a glance.

This made Chen Guan realize that low presence is not an invincible ability, and ultimately, some abilities can counter it.

After numerous tests, Chen Guan found that his kind of Secret Law is not permanent and can only last for a while.

The duration depends on the amount of Primordial Energy consumed when Chen Guan uses the Secret Law; the more Primordial Energy he consumes, the lower the presence of the patted creature and the longer the duration.

Among his own pets, Ming Fei and the Paperman can ignore the low presence ability and remain unaffected.

Chen Guan captured a Sixth Sense Secret Spirit, the "little grass elf," bringing it into his ring space, then entered a cave.

Through the telescope, he noticed the one on duty today was that big-headed doll.

Chen Guan carefully opened the switch next to the telescope, where there was a gap leading outside the cave.

Outside, there were various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures concealing it, making it look like nothing was there.

He directly threw the little grass elf out of the gap, then immediately closed the switch again.

Even if this thing gets discovered, it’s hard for those people to guess where it came from.

Although called a grass elf, it actually looks more like a puppet, but this puppet is clad in green bark for clothes, with leaves for hair, and branches for limbs; it doesn’t really appear very cute.

The Sixth Sense little grass elf doesn’t have strong combat power; its abilities are auxiliary in nature.

After throwing it out, Chen Guan originally wanted to use the little grass elf to test whether it would be detected by those people.

But once the little grass elf got out, its body immediately began to swell.

"Oh no!" Chen Guan didn’t expect the little grass elf to be so sensitive to the Primordial Energy.

It had just gone out and, upon encountering the outside’s cloudy mist-like Primordial Energy, its body began to undergo violent changes.

Its entire branches and leaves spread open, drawing in a large amount of Primordial Energy into its body.

In just a moment, the little grass elf’s body swelled a size bigger and even directly leveled up.

The Primordial Energy was surging here, causing such a commotion, yet the big-headed doll over there didn’t notice at all and still kept his eyes on the Jade Solitary Sword.

Chen Guan was delighted: "Even such a big commotion can’t make him notice, it seems my Secret Law is working."

The little grass elf was simply like escaping from hell to heaven, floating in the sky, moving with the clouds and mist, ceaselessly absorbing the pure Primordial Energy to evolve itself.

Not long after, the little grass elf actually reached the Sixth Awakening Peak and started the Seventh Awakening.

"Awakening Secret Law with such a big commotion... it’s hard not to be discovered..." Chen Guan was a bit worried again.

To his surprise, even the Awakening of the Secret Law with such a big commotion didn’t make the big-headed doll take an extra glance.

The Secret Law that Chen Guan modified turned out to be more effective than he had imagined.

Aside from beings like Ming Fei and the Paperman with special abilities, ordinary creatures indeed could not detect creatures covered by the Secret Law.

Chen Guan dared not be careless, allowing the little grass elf to rapidly grow by absorbing Primordial Energy outside, awaiting the shift change among the four people.

The Secret Law he applied to the little grass elf was strong enough and should last until the four took turns once each.

Chen Guan watched as those people came one by one, none of them noticing the little grass elf; finally, when it was the woman’s turn on duty, Chen Guan was already certain that these people indeed could not see the little grass elf.

With this realization, Chen Guan finally relaxed completely.

However, he still had no plan to go out himself; he pulled Xiao Bai out and, after a discussion, Xiao Bai agreed to go outside and bring back some liquid Primordial Energy for him.

Chen Guan applied the Secret Law to Xiao Bai, allowing it to slip out through the gap, heading toward the pool where the woman was.

Chen Guan watched Xiao Bai nervously; Xiao Bai had already absorbed the Primordial Energy in the cave, so it wasn’t as excited as the little grass elf upon encountering the outside Primordial Energy.

It landed in the pool, disregarding the woman soaking there, wrapped some liquid Primordial Energy, and soared straight up.

Seeing the ripples in the pool, Chen Guan frowned nervously, but fortunately, the woman didn’t notice anything, continuing to soak in the liquid Primordial Energy while staring at the Jade Solitary Sword.

Xiao Bai, wrapped with liquid Primordial Energy, flew back and squeezed through the gap.

Its body could change shape at will; ordinary pets would have a hard time squeezing through.

"Come, give me the liquid Primordial Energy inside," Chen Guan said quickly.

Xiao Bai flew above Chen Guan’s head, and the liquid Primordial Energy inside it fell like raindrops.

Chen Guan hurriedly operated the Secret Technique of One, absorbing all the liquid Primordial Energy into his body, indeed feeling different from before, with the Primordial Energy in his body increasing significantly.

Chen Guan cultivated under Xiao Bai, letting Xiao Bai let the liquid Primordial Energy trickle down onto him continually.

When all the liquid Primordial Energy inside Xiao Bai was exhausted, Chen Guan reapplied the Secret Law to it, sending it out again to fetch more.

This went on for more than a month, and Chen Guan, whose level had long been stagnant, finally rose by one level again.

However, such a speed of upgrading still couldn’t satisfy Chen Guan’s needs.

He himself needed resources for cultivation, and the Secret Realm also required resources. Relying solely on Xiao Bai bringing back liquid Primordial Energy was not enough to meet his needs.

The liquid Primordial Energy that Xiao Bai brought back during this period was all used by Chen Guan himself for upgrading, so the Secret Realm did not acquire any energy, remaining as small as ever.

"There’s an unimaginable abundance of Primordial Energy outside, and since those four can’t detect the Secret Spirits enhanced by my Secret Law, they certainly won’t be able to detect me either. It’s much more efficient to directly go out and absorb Primordial Energy than this cumbersome process." With this thought, Chen Guan made up his mind.

He directly applied the Secret Law to himself, patting his own head, then dismantled the telescope and climbed out through the hole, restoring it to its original state afterward.

Chen Guan flew cautiously in the air, noticing that today’s on-duty big-headed doll didn’t pay him any attention, and his heart settled down.

The outside Primordial Energy was even more abundant than inside the cave, no wonder the little grass elf went crazy upgrading the moment it emerged.

Chen Guan was like a dragon entering the sea, a tiger falling among sheep, completely unrestrained, absorbing the Primordial Energy between heaven and earth, while flying toward the mountain peak with the pool.
